[quote=Anonymous][quote]Applying enough spray sunscreen takes approximately 6 seconds, spraying from 6-8 inches away, based on our calculations. The area temporarily turns white, as shown above, when you are applying enough.[/quote]

[quote]The issue with spray sunscreen is not how much you are applying, as with lotion. Instead, the problem is for how long you are applying the formula.

If you apply a spray sunscreen for 2-3 seconds, you only apply about 0.5 milligrams per centimeter of skin, according to our in-house testing. [We measured this by measuring the forearm area and weights of bottles before and after application of spray sunscreen.] That means you get about one-quarter the protection you need to obtain the level of protection indicated by the SPF rating on the bottle. If you are applying a product with an SPF rating of 45, you would be getting SPF 10-12 protection. Not cool.[/quote]
